Better second day: Aerodyne Aerokart Maubeuge

posted Mar 19th, 2011 -
There is hope for France. In fact, the new scores of Aerodyne Aerokart Maubeuge indicate that Arizona Airspeed has to watch out for the French team in the near future. Things changed after Round 7 at the Shamrock Showdown 2011, and the second half of the meet looks much friendlier from the French perspective.

Aerodyne Aerokart Maubeuge won Round 8 and tied Airspeed in Round 9. The winner of yesterday's five rounds (119 - 113) allowed France to be much closer in the second half. Only two points separate both teams between Round 6 and Round 9. The scores of Round 10 have not been posted yet.

Airspeed is not under serious pressure any longer, and today's performance may be a result of a strategy for this kind of a situation. However, the motivation and spirits on the French side will be on a much higher level after today's jumps.

$450 for Bodyflight Voluntas

All videos of Round 7 have now been uploaded, and the scores for Round 9 are complete. The same battles within the field have continued, and Round 10 will bring the conclusion at several different spots of the leaderboard.

The Amphibious Attack Tigers and Teiwaz Eagles have caught up and will complete all ten rounds on one day. Teiwaz Eagle had a great start into the Skins Game and took the $150 sponsored by United Parachute Technologies.

Bodyflight Voluntas had the best Round 7 after handicap and won the $300 cash, also sponsored by UPT. Chuting Star's $450 will go to France since the Aerodyne Cypres Deep Blue Defenders had the best Round 8. The Amphibious Attack Tigers will also be rewarded for their 10-round efforts on Saturday. They won the skin for Round 9 with the 20-pointer.
